Study update summary
7 Jul, 2026Study design and methodology
GX-03 Phase II trial for atopic dermatitis uses a staged adaptive, double-blind, vehicle-controlled design, refining Stage 2 based on interim data from the first 50 patients to optimize for higher success probability and resource efficiency.
Enrollment continued uninterrupted during interim analysis, with all patients remaining blinded and included in the final Stage 2 analysis, maintaining trial integrity and efficiency.
Stage 2 will enroll approximately 120–135 patients aged 18–80, stratified into three EASI severity groups and by pruritus severity, with balanced 1:1 randomization between drug and vehicle arms.
The Hochberg procedure is used for multiplicity control across four prespecified efficacy endpoints at weeks 4 and 8.
The final Stage 2 design aims to maximize scientific value, regulatory support, and statistical power for future development.
Interim results and efficacy findings
In the EASI 1.1–7 subgroup, GX-03 showed a 71.4% vIGA-AD/IGA success rate versus 33.3% for vehicle, with significant treatment differences at week 4 and week 8 EASI-100 (35.7% vs 11.1%).
Moderate-severe AD subgroup (IGA 3/4, EASI≥10) showed GX-03 outperforming vehicle in week 4 vIGA-AD success (55.6% vs 25%) and EASI-75 (88.9% vs 50%).
In the EASI≥1.1 and PP-NRS≥7 subgroup, GX-03 outperformed vehicle across all endpoints, e.g., week 4 vIGA-AD success 61.5% vs 8.3%, EASI-75 69.2% vs 25%, and week 8 EASI-100 46.2% vs 8.3%.
Higher baseline pruritus severity correlated with stronger GX-03 responses, supporting enrichment strategies for Stage 2.
Retrospective application of the optimized Stage 2 design to the first 50 completers confirmed robust efficacy, with notable separation at all four primary endpoints.
Safety and regulatory update
No treatment-related serious adverse events, new safety signals, or tolerability issues were observed in either treatment group; one mild warming sensation and one unrelated common cold reported.
The trial is overseen by an independent Data and Safety Monitoring Committee, supporting confidence in tolerability.
Sufficient capital is available to support study completion and operations through Q3 2027.
Continued enrollment is expected to accelerate completion, with a Phase II data readout targeted for Q4 2026.
A Type B FDA meeting is planned to discuss Phase III design, aiming for Phase III initiation in mid-2027, pending successful Phase II results and regulatory alignment.
